Rebel Heart Coaching Podcast

In today’s episode, I share with you one of my favorite daily routines that serves multiple functions in my life and in my self-care. This routine has turned out to be crucial for being a sacred and safe place where I dream and manifest naturally, almost without trying. I take my dog here to this beautiful woods and meadow combination almost daily without fail, even in rain and snow. I can let my...

Today I reflect about how my recent bout of feeling sick was a little easier because I reframed what health and healing means and why it's important. As I reprogram what healing is and can look like for me, I encourage you to do the same.

I talk about WHY what we say and how we say it is so important, how it impacts you and your health as well as others, and good questions you can run through your own filter before you talk.

In this episode, I'm talking about inspiration I received while literally walking on the path. I share some important insights that you too can remember when walking your path in life, wherever you are and whatever stage you’re in. Whether you feel lost and confused on the path or don’t know your next right step, or maybe your just beginning something and everything feels new, unknown, and scary,...

Authenticity is often overshadowed by more glamorous emotions like love or joy. But in this SPANE scale study of 25,000 participants, being true to one’s own personality, spirit, or character was 4,000 x more powerful. The frequency rises to incredible heights when we align our actions with our beliefs, desires, and needs. Unlike love, which has been celebrated as the pinnacle of emotional experie...

In this episode, I'm talking about the iportance of Rest and how often, this is the exact remedy that’s needed in your day, week, or month. Being intentional to take time to take a nap, meditate, or rest is often a radical act of self-love and self-care and I help you understand why.

We are talking about a simple communication strategy that you can use to clarify your own needs for yourself in any given moment, particularly in times of stress or challenge.  This is  also a wonderful tool to use when interacting with others who may need something, but you aren’t quite sure what you should give them, how to show up for them if you want to, or what they are really askin...

In this episode, I make a strong case as to why I think problems and hard things are good and a necessary part of our process of learning, creating, growth, and manifestation, and why focusing your attention on certain things is one of the most powerful tools you have.

In this episode, I make comparisons with Imposter system as it relates to the state of our country. I discuss the trend in the US and in some other parts o the world where big businesses and corporations value profit over everything else. They fail to see the interconnectedness of their actions and how it has a ripple effect. When they strip what is essential and natural away, then what's left is...

The 5th and final somatic channel of emotions is a powerful and deep subconscious channel. I explore the importance of being able to navigate this channe. I talk about the upper limit problem, how emotions can be addicting and how to overcome them, and encourage you to connect to your emotions in order to have a healthier and more fulfilled life.

In this episode, we dive into your inner Sensation, sometimes called “felt sense”, that is based on physical sensations that encompass the whole inner landscape of our bodies. We can allow and work with sensations in the body and tune into them to renogotiate trauma so it can be transformed.

Posture is the communicator that's a bridge between your unconscious and conscious mind. According to research, our body language shapes not only how other people think and feel about us, but it also shapes and governs how we think and feel about ourselves and within ourselves. We know that our mind changes our body, but here we explore how our body and posture also changes our mind.

The Somatic Channel of our imagination is the channel that connects us to our creative energetics, our ability to dream up a reality we want and then manifest it. It can also help create safety in our body and in our life and and create space. Our Imagination is truly a sacred gift and it is one of the most underutilized faculties of our conscious mind. I dive into Imagination in the context of so...

In this episode, I talk about the importance of and limited nature of the Mind channel in healing trauma or difficult memories from the past. Taking in information at the cognitive level is necessary, but eventually we need to integrate this wisdom by utilizing the other 4 channels and apply it in our lives in order to heal.

The 5 Somatic channels function in a somatic therapy context in order to access, digest, and purge stuck and stagnant survival energy (aka trauma) that's in the body and nervous system. These channels are constantly processing "charges" or information. They are how we as human beings experience the world and there is no time that our awareness can be outside of these channels. In today's episode,...

The insight in particular that I had recently was that my body is my subconscious mind, and that they are intricately linked. It sounds so simple and unimpressive at first, but the depth of this truth is profound. I explain more about this insight and why it matters for your well-being and healing as well as for living the life you want on your own terms.

I have asked the divine and in my guidance, I was given at least 3 things we can focus on and practice that I Intuitively feel that 2024 will be asking from of all of us as a collective, beyond our own individual journeys and goals.

By the time this episode is available to you for your listening pleasure, it will be just a couple days before we are heading into the new year of 2024. And I know like a lot of you, there is a collective tug to look back at 2023 to see what went well, what needs improvement or change, and who we want to be in the coming year. We think about how we want to show up in our lives differently. Maybe w...

The kind of internal surrender I'm talking about today takes some work. In part, we are unlearning and deprogramming from all of our protective mechanisms and habits of self-sabotage and of the internal resistance to natural flow. But it is really just allowing ourselves to be in flow which is our natural state and birthright, but because so many times we are disconnected from that state and livin...

Many people with trauma have a deep capacity for restriction and pain. Constriction is what the body does during stress and trauma. When you grow up or develop in these environments and with this programming, your body begins to associate constriction and stress with familiarity, security, and comfort. This means we will tend to seek people, habits, and lifestyles that create constriction because...

In order to truly belong, we must know who we authentically are first. If we can we learn to how to witness our own minds, body, and experiences and find security in our self-attunement and self-reflection, then we find security in ourself and in our higher power/source. I don’t desperately need to belong to you or need your approval if I already belong to myself and within myself. But finding out...

Today’s episode is about our capacity or our threshold to be with discomfort and Pain of others and ultimately within ourselves. Each of us has a current upper limit for the amount of another persons pain we are able to withstand, though that limit varies by person and circumstance. You will not likely be able to authentically tolerate or be with others in pain and discomfort, unless you have sat...

Disappointment is a feeling that comes when we hoped for something that didn't happen or have expectations about a person or situation. This is not always a bad thing, and feeling disappointment is part of the human experience. Yet, having expectations can be limiting and cause us to suffer unneccessarily. I share with you how I'm navigating in real time the feeling of disappointment and talk abou...

Life isn’t always easy or smooth. It’s not supposed to be. We only gain wisdom through our lived experience. We know more about ourselves and what we want when we discover what we don’t want. With contrast in life comes bigger or new dreams and new desires. There are 2 simple things that I’ve discovered that allow me to go through tough times with more grace and ease. 1. Radical Acceptance of what...

Just when we think we’ve conquered something or worked through a pattern—-our trauma, our anger, our betrayal, our jealousy, our self-abandonment, or self-doubt, or whatever it is, those same old thoughts, feelings, and circumstances seem to keep re-appearing and test us. In this episode, I share how these patterns and lessons are normal and cyclical and that every time something like this comes b...
